Just needs some time to get to it

[slim whale]

U playing today?

[topaz star]

Not today

[mossy belfry]

got apoc 3 done with the twins on sunny meadows :D

[slim whale]

Good job!!

[wide rock]

Aye!! Same as me! Twins was definitely fun to have for it

[mossy belfry]

wayyy better than my first attempt getting a shade 😭 got no where close to the ghost room to test for it

[thorn spruce]

damn how did u figure out it was the twins

[slim whale]

Speed

I guess

[vagrant ocean]

On my xbox account just got the theyre here achivement when i died to a wraith, is this normal

[worn glade]

DOTs photography is never gonna be fixed, is it?

[civic ice]

Can banshees swap target after being smudged?

[civic ice]

Wym

[neon thunder]

no

[worn glade]

the bug's as old as I've been playing the game, and it's not on the known issues list

[neon thunder]

unless the target is outside

[civic ice]

With banshees changing target?

[worn glade]

No, DOTs photography not working

[civic ice]

The target was inside it was going after him I smudged to save him and then it went for me after I was soaking the radio and talking a lot near him while he was looping it

[worn glade]

Banshees can change target just fine, if the main target isn't valid at the time of hunting, it moves to the next target

[civic ice]

As it not counting as a ghost photo or?

[neon thunder]

it was probably just pathing in a way that made it look like it was chasing

[worn glade]

As in the ghost being clear in the photo, but the media tab says it's a blank entry

I would share an example as I have a screenshot tab full here

[civic ice]

No it was going after him for sure as he was looping it we were on tangle wood and he was looping it around the kitchen bench and then it went for me an killed me

[worn glade]

but I'm not even allowed to share the link to imgur here where I've posted them for the bug repots

[civic ice]

Dm me it

[worn glade]

so you end up trying 4 times, 3 times you delete the photo, and the 4th time your media tab is FUBAR and you just give up

[civic ice]

Weird I’ve never had it happen or heard others talk about it till now

Must be rare then how often you had it happen?

[worn glade]

it happens quite regularly

[vast steeple]

:^

[pine eagle]

Yes, happened to me a couple days ago. Ghost was a spirit in the entry way. The run lasted 18 minutes and my game summary said the ghost spent 0 seconds inside the ghost room with 0 interactions.

[cunning flare]

No one wants to join me bruhhhh

[topaz star]

It's called timezones

[late yoke]

is dinner table fixed in new grafton ?

[neon thunder]

i think so

[late yoke]

i heard it from some dudes i tried but ghost always sees me

same for upperfloor left room table as well

[random stratus]

wdym?

[dull vault]

Breaker of/on is EMF2/5
Jinn ability also

[slim whale]

Hantu cannot turn breaker on
Jinn cannot turn breaker off
Jinn ability is based around breaker. I sont understand it tho

Yes you can identify jinn with emf on breaker

Not during a hunt

Just if there is emf 2 signal on the breaker without anything happening. Thats how i understand it

[zinc coyote]

[random stratus]

as soon as i found out it was a thaye i was like "imma make it age and then bully it"

and let me tell you, i almost feel bad

he was in the basement of willow street, i was in the living room

the little fucker barely had time to get upstairs

[zinc coyote]

"Im tired boss"

[random stratus]

it was slower than the deogen i swear

[edgy drum]

Can the sound of the front door closing when the ghost starts hunting, be sound recorded?

[slim whale]

No

[edgy drum]

bummer, ty

[slim whale]

Door closing sound in general cannot be recorded

Video might work

[edgy drum]

ahh il try it

ty

[slim whale]

Check dms

[uneven arch]

anyone able to help me to complete my apoc 1 quest? will stream the game

[south violet]

sup

[atomic leaf]

every objective is very doable

[tough storm]

With power = jinn fast

No power = jinn normal/slow

[hallow vortex]

does anyone have a problem on xbox where if you use tier 3 incense your whole xbox turns off and says it overheated?

[tulip vortex]

i think thats a personal problem\

[hallow vortex]

dayum

the game hates me

[slow spade]

so real

[strange coyote]

Its not about the cringe of people selling others service to carry them through levels, its about the fact that he asked.

[worn glade]

You're not supposed to light it up IRL

[dusky siren]

Looking for a group of 3 more players have a mic any age and any level dm me if u wanna play

[spark mulch]

I just got killed by a Mare that was walking at the same speed as a Deogen.. While outside?

[winged oracle]

That is unexplainable

[tough storm]

Nah dawg, you put your xbox in a furnace

[spark mulch]

You're telling me.. I sent the video in #videos

[hallow vortex]

ots in my room actualy

[tough storm]

Is it in a cabinet /semi enclosed space?

[wise oyster]

weekly challenge has 50% ghost speed

[spark mulch]

Didn't know that, but even still it was slower than that

And it still killed me while I was outside

[wise oyster]

That's inside the investigation area

[spark mulch]

What does it go up to that gate?

[tough storm]

Mateeeee

Thats bleasdale garden

[wise oyster]

yup, that side path is a room

[tough storm]

The backside of bleasdale/The garden is a room for the ghost

Back porch, Garden and the side pathway is rooms

[spark mulch]

Didn't know that, I just assumed outside is outside

[winged oracle]

I just want horror 2.0 to come out already

[tough storm]

On bleasdale the outside isnt just the outside hahahaha

[winged oracle]

At this rate it's gonna come out before GTA 6...

[tough storm]

Gta is never gonna release. Its a phasmo ghost nowadays

Nothing but a folkstale that gta 6 is

[wise oyster]

The Cheat Sheet has great maps that might help clear it up.

[tough storm]

Bleasdale garden is the same kind of outside as SM courtyard

Or whtv that middle outside area is called

[wise oyster]

And many of the rooms in Grafton, tbh

[tough storm]

Grafton is a outdoor map. Can't convince me otherwise

[wise oyster]

with how many rooms aren't heated by the breaker, that's a valid argument

[tough storm]

How many rooms are heated by the breaker? Like three?

[spark mulch]

Ah, I like to learn through trial and error, thanks tho, I just didn't realise until now that that was outside

Also I thought it would be faster because I didn't read the challenge stats which is why I thought Deo

[rich escarp]

I think it’s everywhere unless it’s not outside

[tough storm]

On grafton? No shot

Grafton I think only like 3 or 4 rooms are heated up after turning breaker on

[rich escarp]

I haven’t played this one that much after the update. Though I heard as long as it’s a room with open window is considered to be outside sooo good luck there 😆

[tough storm]

Grafton has open walls 🤣

[rich escarp]

Welp we screwed lol

[wooden robin]

I think it's upstairs master bedroom, doll room, downstairs toilet and mannequin room that are heated

[vital sonnet]

Yall what'd they do to sound sensor. playing random stuff now in the room.

[tough storm]

That's not many

[naive arrow]

Pretty sure sound sensor only detects sound stuff you can audibly hear like if you were in the map normally

Pretty sure they added more ambience tho, so maybe that's what you're hearing

[wooden robin]

It's 5 out of the 14 which makes me think Grafton as a outdoor map

[vital sonnet]

Well it sounds like a radio when placed and idk why.

Like you can hear music

[kindred tangle]

ghost may of turned on a radio inside the house

[tulip sierra]

hi chat

[lime token]

Hey man

[tough storm]

Which is the 5th?

[gloomy cliff]

Does onryo 100% of the time attempt to hunt after 3rd flame?

[main meadow]

Yes.

The only times it does not Hunt is if it is user error because you miscounted, did not notice your lighter was blown out or another flame/crucifix is nearby.

[gloomy cliff]

Thank you, alright

[worn glade]

Is the sound sensor bugged anyway? Everytime i see it on the weekly tasks, I put a sound sensor down and it instantly jumps to 50/50 progress
I won't complain of course, free money
Just strange

[lime token]

Yeah I think the challenge is bugged for it

[main meadow]

Because that's not how they work

[prime elk]

Crucifix (Consumable: All Tiers)

The Crucifix is a complex piece of equipment in Phasmophobia that can prevent a Ghost from entering its physical form to attack; exception being Cursed Hunts with Tiers I and II. Drop or place it around the Ghost using the F or G key (default).

The two functions the Crucifix serves are as follows:

Functions

1. Whether on the floor or in your hand, the Crucifix will prevent a Hunt within a small radius. If a Ghost tries to Hunt within that range, it will be stopped and use up a part of the Crucifix.

2. A Crucifix's range is larger when either your Crucifix tier is higher or the Ghost is a Demon, which will prevent Hunts from a larger radius.

- Upon the Crucifix being half-burnt, it has been used once - Fully burnt has been used up entirely.

- The Crucifix is unable to stop Hunts in-progress, and can only prevent them from happening in the first place.```

[rancid ivy]

Yall gotta update those tips with the improved animations.

[worn glade]

Cruxes only halt the attempt of a hunt, when in range, it doesn't affect a ghost that's already hunting

That's not a thing

[main meadow]

That is not a thing please don't try to spread misinformation

This channel is for facts and helping people

[worn glade]

I think what happened was you threw it at a ghost that was at the end of its hunting period

[main meadow]

The same confirmation bias as people saying they talked and the ghost hunted it hunted because it was in its sanity range

[worn glade]

You can't have opinions about the way the game is coded, cruxes do nothing besides stopping a hunt when it's starting position is in range of the crux
Demons have a bonus extended range, and T3 cruxes can halt cursed hunts
Cruxes do absolutely nothing when the hunt is already started

save yourself some inventory space, and carry a smudge instead

[rancid ivy]

You sure you're not confusing that for a ghost event?

A crucifix will defintely not stop a currently hunting ghost. It's like a vaccine (for lack of a better example). It prevents you from getting sick, but it's not gonna help you when you're already sick.

[dense ocean]

Yea there's not really "different opinions" to have over something completely objective

Crucifixes block hunts from starting within their range. After the hunt has already begun they don't do anything tho

[rancid ivy]

Also, finally got my second Yurei since Chronicle. I'm loving how much more consistent their ability is.

[wise oyster]

I've got lots of opinions about how the game is coded. but not the same thing

[lime token]

Imagine throwing a crucifix at the ghost and it immediately stopping a hunt lol

[rancid ivy]

Tier 4 crucifix

[lime token]

Nah chalk that what about the T10 cruci

[wise oyster]

T46 when?

[prisma laurel]

Add a rare moment where the yurei slams every door in its area

[lime token]

That happened next week

Duh

[rancid ivy]

What

[wise oyster]

Sure why not, but Yurei's biggest issue is rooms w/ no doors

[rancid ivy]

I hate that Mares are my most common ghosts. Now that Yureis are consistent, Mares are straight up the worst ghost.

[prisma laurel]

Then it's a skill issue for yurei

[wise oyster]

Right, buff yurei

[rancid ivy]

Also, quick question about hte Grafton foyer. Does the main "light" in the room prevent total sanity drain or do I need to use the lamps too? I'm assuming the main light is enough, but given how unique the situation is, I wasn't sure if it really does anything.

[lime token]

"We have had reports of lightswitching"
Not a mare then!

[modern mauve]

Slows sanity drain iirc

[past leaf]

I have 17K. Is Headgear T2 actually a $10K worthy upgrade? Should I go for it? Or should I go for other T2s first?

(Other Options: Incense, Para, Tripod, Firelight, Igniter, motion Sensor, and Sound Sensor)

[lime token]

Sound sensor

[modern mauve]

T2 headgear

[rancid ivy]

T2 headgear is totally worth it, but up to you if you want it now or later.

[wise oyster]

"We've had reports of lights breaking" - still not a Mare

[worn bobcat]

what if ghost turns off lights

[past leaf]

Tbh, I never use it.

[past leaf]

Gotcha. Thanks! 🙂

[rancid ivy]

Sound sensor got done dirty in Chronicle imo.

[dense ocean]

Don't actually get the sound sensor

I'd get t2 headgear. It's a tier 2 flashlight you can wear on your head which is amazing because it frees up the inventory spot you'd have otherwise used up on a flashlight

[past leaf]

Oh cool! 😮

[wise oyster]

"We've had reports of ghosts turning off lights right after they're turned on, and roaming away from lighted rooms." - somehow still not a Mare

[past leaf]

I literally never carry a flashlight because it just feels so useless compared to the other tools. So, that's a cool upgrade!

[rancid ivy]

Mares are now a bigger punching bag than Yureis. How deserved.

[lime token]

"We have had reports of spirit box, ghost orbs and ghost writing"
Still not a mare

[jaunty matrix]

I havent played the game in a year or so and just came back to it - how do people feel about the media changes?
Im finding it very difficult to get a perfect investigation. It seems there are not enough things to actually take pictures of and some videos are very difficult to get (flickering lights for example) :o

[rancid ivy]

I just realized how satisfying my game against my Yurei was. I got photos of all three of its evidences

[rancid ivy]

The additional media is fun, though imo it made perfect games too tedious to do solo (and they weren't that profitable before either). There's also a noticeable lack of photo opportunities in 0 evidence unless you get lucky with ghost events.

[jaunty matrix]

yeah sorry i shouldve clarified i meant 0 evidence

tedious is the word

[modern mauve]

Media rework is a net positive in my eyes, it does need a little tweaking but it's definitely the right move. More photo opportunities would be fantastic

[wise oyster]

Perfects are definitely much more difficult. However, it's kind of a tradeoff. 1. The perfect bonus itself hasn't changed, and really wasn't worth the time/effort before Chronicle. 2. The media captures are pre-multiplier, so you can get a good bump in rewards even if you don't get a full perfect.

[rancid ivy]

As a small tangent, but bone hunting on Grafton is such a chore now. Perfect games may as well not exist on that map sometimes.

[wise oyster]

0ev definitely hardest hit. Photos especially need some love

[mossy mason]

i still think perfect bonus should be increased by $50/$75/$100, dependant on map size

[modern mauve]

The main improvements for me would be:

• Extra photos
• Better Perfect rewards
• Better bone placements

[wise oyster]

$0 photos should not count against deletions

[mossy mason]

$0 photos shouldn't be added to the journal

[wise oyster]

I agree. My proposal is the moderate solution in my view

[modern mauve]

Agreed, I'm cool with only duplicates counting

[jaunty matrix]

yeah the photos really frustrated me. i agree, need more lol

[wise oyster]

alright cool. Call up DK and make it so

[modern mauve]

[rancid ivy]

Am I just tripping or was there a brief period where we had 5 deletions?

[modern mauve]

If I had that clout, I would

[modern mauve]

5 deletions for Amateur

[mossy mason]

i have a full list of feedback and tweaks to suggest, but the feedback channels haven't opened for Chronicle (idk why)

[wise oyster]

I started playing with Events on high to increase photo (and other media) chances

[lime token]

Taking the ferry to the UK now

[rancid ivy]

Ah, right. I forgot about that on the weekly

[modern mauve]

Well, they're heading to Gamescon rn

[wise oyster]

oh there's a con? That's better than just taking a week off at least

Cologne, Germany. Nice

[rancid ivy]

IIRC, the only 0 EV photo opportunities we have without the ghost are Bone, Cursed Object, Dirty Water, and EMF. Am I missing any more?

[lime token]

Cruci

[rancid ivy]

Thanks.

[modern mauve]

I don't really care if they do take a week off, but yeah if they're all "off", it's usually for cons and media stuff XD

[mossy mason]

Interaction as well, but it's a difficult photo to take

[wise oyster]

I've gotten a little better at those 🤏

[modern mauve]

Oh, I have an extra change for the media stuff

• For the love of god, make events last longer AND the ghosts stop disappearing when you walk into them

[rancid ivy]

I think I've gotten a singular interaction photo since Chronicle.

[lime token]

If I'm currently struggling to take oni hunt photos rn, I don't think I should take interaction photos lmao

[wise oyster]

And idc if they're getting redone in Horror 2.0. Give us a band-aid now

[modern mauve]

It was fine when it was just photos, but it's just more "feels bad" than anything

[bleak snow]

Whenever i try loading it gets to 3 dots then 6 and it crashes who knows how to fix

[rancid ivy]

I once had a DOTS ghost that I could never get a video of because it either kept wandering off screen, or tagged me and disappeared. It was in the Tanglewood foyer too

[modern mauve]

DOTS videos in general are tough, don't usually have issues with photos

[wise oyster]

[wise oyster]

start by verifying files probably

[fickle meteor]

its already easy 😭

[lime token]

Has anyone ever managed to take a photo of a one frame event

[fickle meteor]

yes😭

[wise oyster]

I don't think I've ever even seen one with my eyes

[rancid ivy]

I've been quite enjoying the photos now that the stars don't ruin them. Videos of the events really suck because it takes too long for the capture.

[modern mauve]

I kinda agree when it does a singing event, but others either just disappear too quickly, or they walk towards you and and disappear before you can react

[rancid ivy]

I've technically gotten a photo of an Obake mid transformation once, but that was before Chronicle.

[wise oyster]

The lack of stars is definitely a big plus, but the system itself isn't improved in identifying when a photographable object is in frame. Mist form and DOTS appear to be the worst offenders

[mossy mason]

i feel like the only tweak audio would need is lowering the minimum time between sounds
85 seconds is just annoying if you don't have EMF 5/Spirit Box/Writing

[rancid ivy]

Clearly the ghost is just camouflaged.

[wise oyster]

Events need a preamble like the door slams have

[modern mauve]

Now that sounds like a dope idea

[oak cradle]

can someone help me on german?

[rancid ivy]

Maybe EMF slowly jumps up to 4 right before the event and equipment malfunctions?

[wise oyster]

Maybe for some events, not all of them. Some would be fine if they just lasted longer.

[plucky pecan]

they need more jumpscares in game

[wise oyster]

Like give the walking events a preamble, let the standing events just last longer (light breaking, red light, etc)

[rancid ivy]

Red light is my favorite ghost event. Light break is my least favorite, with sneaky mist event being second.

[lime token]

As long as they are not fnaf styled jumpscares I'm fine with this

Oops wrong chat

-trello

[prime elk]

Kinetic Games has a Trello Board! There you can see potential upcoming updates, features, and fixes. You can find the Trello @ https://trello.com/b/9QrnqQ1j/phasmophobia.

[plucky pecan]

the game is scary but need some sort of jumpscares in game

[wise oyster]

The game creates many organic "jumpscare" moments. That's totally different than having things scripted to purposely be jumpscares

[modern mauve]

You may wanna hold off on this for a week, it ain't changing

[rancid ivy]

FNAF-like jumpscares are terrible.

[wise oyster]

He'll take his chances

[fickle meteor]

u gotta lock in

[modern mauve]

I know it's futile, but hey, guy's gotta try

[plucky pecan]

like when you die its not scary at all

[lime token]

Who knows, the trello could've changed in the past 30 seconds

[wise oyster]

Death scenes will be reworked in Horror 2.0

[plucky pecan]

FINALLY

[modern mauve]

(Next year)

[lime token]

I still don't know of the ghost gauges your eyes out or chokes you

[bright badge]

Horror 2.0 is years out
Postponed until after GTA 6

[analog widget]

I am aware that the devs are on Vacation but at this point its a tradition

[wise oyster]

yes

[wise oyster]

I think GTA6 first, but it's an honest question now at least

[lime token]

Gta 7 first

[analog widget]

I think horror 2.0 is less than a year away in my opinion

[modern mauve]

I think Horror 2.0 before GTA6 BUT 1.0 will come later

[bright badge]

That’s probably true

[modern mauve]

My rationale: the map reworks

[bright badge]

Not 1.0 until all the remaining maps are reworked and that’s at least a year out

[lime token]

That means we have to get horror 2.0 by like May?

[analog widget]

Nahh I don't think they are gonna release horror 2.0 before they release all the house map reworks

[modern mauve]

I do not see Prison and HS before or with horror 2.0

And I think folks would be upset if they "delayed" Horror 2.0 because of two map reworks

[wise oyster]

So are you thinking: Horror 2.0 > High school/Prison reworks > v1.0?

[analog widget]

I mean the house maps not Prison and HS reworks

[bright badge]

Who knows, GTA 6 could be pushed back
Additionally, we will be waiting an extra year for it to hit pc

[modern mauve]

More specifically House reworks > Horror 2.0 > HS/Prison > 1.0.

[wise oyster]

So 1.0 in 2027?

[analog widget]

Yea that makes sense

[rancid ivy]

Ugh. Why do people on SCUD insist on keeping the old jank maps.

[modern mauve]

End of 2026/early 2027

[wise oyster]

That'd be cool

[lime token]

My prediction on the road to horror 2.0. Diner into Tanglewood + Character customization into Edgefield into Ridgeview into Willow into Horror 2.0

[modern mauve]

I think we also get QoL stuff, additional bug fixes

Q3 and Q4 will be mopping up issues

[analog widget]

I feel like it would be a bit further away from that because HS and Prison reworks would take at least 4 months each to make + Internal testing and closed beta testing

[bright badge]

I think that the map reworks are being worked on parallel to Horror 2.0 so it’s not like they are going to wait to finish the maps before finishing it

[lime token]

Input delay fix before gta 6

[analog widget]

In my opinion Horror 2.0 will be a July or August release so the devs would only have 4 months to do 2 reworks of 2 big maps

[wise oyster]

Those 2 maps alone will take 2-3x that

BUT not everyone works on maps all the time, so they could hopefully get a lot of polishing and bug fixing done in the meantime

[lime token]

Unless they decrease the size of them

[modern mauve]

I do expect a big QoL / bug fix sweep after Horror 2.0

[analog widget]

Yea like for both 8-12 months to make

[rancid ivy]

I'm expecting Brownstone and Prison to be updated last due to their sizes. I really want Camp Backwind to be reworked after Tanglewood though.

[modern mauve]

I don't see CWW until way after 1.0

[wise oyster]

I wouldn't be surprised if high school's square footage is pared down, but I expect both will still be Large maps (Prison getting promoted ofc)

[lime token]

What do we see happening after 1.0?

[modern mauve]

Maps & Ghosts

[analog widget]

Honestly I see Cww rework as a thing post Horror 2.0 but pre big map reworks

[wise oyster]

mod support 🤣

[modern mauve]

You laugh, but I could see it

[analog widget]

Ski Cabin when?

[bright badge]

They don’t like us talking about it but I think Phas could have some pretty cool mods for sure

[modern mauve]

DK hasn't ruled it out, but that'll be closer to 2030, if it ever does

[lime token]

I want to time travel to like 2040 and see what phas is going to be like

[analog widget]

If I were to geuss the servers would be closed by then or are closing

[modern mauve]

Not necessarily

[wise oyster]

Van customization

[modern mauve]

Vandelay customisation?

More Seinfeld

[lime token]

Item skins

[analog widget]

I did have a idea for the character update where there would be 10 badges that you could buy

[modern mauve]

I'd like to see lobby and van customisation

[wise oyster]

well in this case I meant the truck. I'm getting my customization with the rest of y'all 😉

[lime token]

I can't wait for character customization

[bright badge]

I don’t expect to see this but, I admit, I would like my t3 items to look vintage like the t1 items without loosing reliability

[lime token]

We can all have our unique characters now

[spark slate]

omg i need gothic stuff so bad

guys i just unlocked my tier 4 items

i always hate starting on my negative 1

[bright badge]

You are a pink haired baddie

[south furnace]

its annoying

[fickle meteor]

im scared

[spark slate]

i need my side part and my black hair

[south furnace]

oh ive gotten tier 8 items befor then i prestige 🙁

[analog widget]

I honestly would be happy if for the character update that they would design 10 more prestige badges for prestiges 11-20 and instead you can buy all the animated versions from the shop when you reach P20

[lime token]

Dude the T37 smudge is so bad, your better of using the T21 at this point

[south furnace]

IK

[fickle meteor]

and give me a fit not some ugly ass sweater jean combo i want fur boots with leg warmers and a skirt

[south furnace]

T37 IS SO BAD I SOMETIMES USE 94

[bright badge]

The only thing I can think of for higher tier smudge is holding more charges or lasting longer. More charges is pretty op and lasting longer might be unpopular for farming

[analog widget]

I just want another second or two of sprint

That’s interesting but I am not sure it fits Phas’ vibe

Campfire in CWW needs to be its own ghost room btw.

[analog widget]

fair point the assets do look kinda bad also doesn't help that it has the same assets as MPL

[wise oyster]

I disagree. CWW needs to be enlarged and layout changed. The assets are fine

[rancid ivy]

I don't mind the campsites sharing assets, but the layout sucks and many hiding spots are mid at best.

[fickle meteor]

i love cww 😭

I like the idea of CWW being donut shaped. Room borders are more atrocious than Ridgeview though.

[lime token]

You have to click the button

[rancid ivy]

I don't mind that change tbh since they don't really do anything important.

[wise oyster]

wow, what a completely useless change. That manpower would be better suited almost anywhere else

[strange coyote]

still think since the average style of the maps from phasmophobia, the next map should be a haunted motel.

[lime token]

And what pisses me off even more is that the change goes for every single one, not just the one in grafton

[fickle meteor]

run down motel >>

[lime token]

And the one in grafton is the only one that makes the cool new sound, all the others make the same old annoying sound

[fickle meteor]

motel with bed bugs

[analog widget]

Its gonna be a Diner

[strange coyote]

No the motel would have a neon no vacancy sign and raven over the place, because next to the motel is a cemetary.

[strange coyote]

I said that specially because there's a diner, there should be a motel too

[bright badge]

Haunted motel is just inside out Highschool
It sounds cool on paper but no one would want to play that map

Point Hope situation

[analog widget]

whoops mb

[wise oyster]

Y'know, you're starting to sell me on that idea

[fickle meteor]

thats why id want a run down , small motel with a large main room where a receptionist would sit

[analog widget]

Yea me too a haunted motel seems like it would be a pretty good idea and if the devs were to release a map with horror 2.0 a motel would probably go well with the release

[strange coyote]

they would a motel consider like many small rooms, so if you find the ghost room, you can't really hide in that room, so you have to exit to the parking, but then its so open its like good luck finding a good hiding spot fast enough

[fickle meteor]

soemthing straigjt out of a jorror movie, and its a motel so its small with a parking lot maybe as a ghost room and telephone booth

and u can hide in a trunk idk

[strange coyote]

and if everyone else is also inside the parking, they're in a whole lot of mess

but if its a deogen, in a parking lot it would be funny.

[fickle meteor]

yesss

hide in a dumpster or something ❤️

or the telephone booth

i like that we are making a map together guys:3

[strange coyote]

NOT THE Dumpster, but there would be a cool prop to pick up in the dumpster.

[fickle meteor]

haha

new cursed item in there

or easter egg

[strange coyote]

If a cursed item is in the dumpster it would be... the haunted mirror.

[analog widget]

I disagree with that I think the map idea is a pretty good idea and also it would be pretty hard for the devs to do a repeat of the Point Hope problem since they would make sure to not have the same problem for new maps

[strange coyote]

because like imagine the guests of the motel just find that mirror, they'd definitely throw it in the trash.

[fickle meteor]

noo the motel would be good and small 🤍

[strange coyote]

otherwise other cursed items, they would be like nah don't touch this thing leave it there.

[fickle meteor]

yeah real or potato easter egg :3

[strange coyote]

It would be so-so small, it would still be a bit of time because there would be staircase with some more rooms on the second floor.

[analog widget]

They could put closets in the motel rooms to hide in

[lime token]

Insym easter egg

[strange coyote]

Or not, but it seems fun anyway running in a parking lot away from the ghost.

[fickle meteor]

but maybe like 8 rooms total excluding main lobby where u check in i think would be cool. i have a small motel like that where i live!

its so creepy!

[analog widget]

That would still be fairly fast especially if they put staircases and both of the left and right side

[strange coyote]

4 bottom, 4 top room seems valid enough

[fickle meteor]

thats how it is !

with stair cases both sides yup

[strange coyote]

and all of them have a bathroom, so its kind of almost medium sized map

[fickle meteor]

yeah exactly

small bathrooms like tanglewood house

[strange coyote]

becomes large if you consider the parking, but otherwise not much to do in the parking lot, there's a fence that closes preventing you from exiting the motel when the ghost hunts

raven noises in the background.

[rancid ivy]

I'm hoping Ridgeview or Edgefield is after Tanglewood.

[strange coyote]

[bright badge]

Insym should do the dispatch and there should be a radio item where he tells you how to play the game 😁 😁 😁

[fickle meteor]

isnt there a rob zombie movie with a motel or am i trippin i saw it when i was like six so i dont remember

[fickle meteor]

yesssss

it could still be small tbh

[analog widget]

4 rooms first floor + check in room + parking lot, second floor 5 bedrooms, then there could be a room in the back of the motel maybe there would be a fire pit or small swimming pool and shed so it could be closer to 12-13 rooms

[bright badge]

I want Willow next, just rip off the bandaid on that one because out of all the house maps, it has its own feel the most

[strange coyote]

its a motel, in a small town, they're not really here to get a dip.

[fickle meteor]

girl what fucking motels do yall have 😭 a pool ? no. i want a trap house !

[strange coyote]

there would be in such town no necessity for a pool.

[analog widget]

maybe a fire pit then?

[fickle meteor]

no XD

[strange coyote]

It would be considered more like a trucker motel.

[fickle meteor]

its a MOTEL not a hotel! its gonna be bad !

[strange coyote]

like its literally next to the diner.

truckers sleep for the night and get burgers.

[fickle meteor]

its gotta smell bad and look awful - like you would never stay

[lime token]

Motel from fortnite

[analog widget]

I've stayed at a total of 1 motel in my life and it had a fire pit

[fickle meteor]

omg imagine u can see the diner sign from afar

[strange coyote]

Yeah but this is not meant for convenience anyway its a ghost town

[fickle meteor]

thats a nice one 👅

[strange coyote]

lol why would you want convenience in a ghost town.

[analog widget]

It wasn't that good it was one of the cheaper ones

[fickle meteor]

theyre all cheap ita a motel 😭

[analog widget]

In my opinion they are prolly gonna go in order of the house maps so after Tw they rework edgefield then ridgeview and then willow

[strange coyote]

Its not like that, but its haunted anyway, I'd imagine its too creepy for it to have any funds to do any renovation or add any convenience.

I mean the sign would say no vacancy so they're definitely not earning money./

[bright badge]

Ok wait, I just had the best map idea ever… a dentists office

[strange coyote]

LOL

[fickle meteor]

hmm maybee

[strange coyote]

I would be dead

[final mango]

Please help, how do I record video evidence? it does not happen automatically

[strange coyote]

the haunted dentice office.

that's funny.

[fickle meteor]

hold recording button

[rancid ivy]

Probably. Imo Edgefield needs a rework more than Ridgeview

[main meadow]

As soon as you see it identify a sound with the sound recorder you need to move closer, while holding right click. same with the video camera when it says what it is on the screen hold right click

[bright badge]

Dentist office does have the benefit of being like a hospital but really small. It could be Sunny Meadows but as a small map lol

[fickle meteor]

dentist offices r always small

[strange coyote]

they should add a cool office in the lobby instead.

like an office to the style of old private investigators.

and then you get cool looking files about ghosts in it.

[vital sonnet]

Do you guys think you can help me find this ghost?
Fast speed, fast blinking.
EMF 5 Checked. No orbs.
Can't be a wraith cuz of salt. Not Jinn cuz it would be slower with breaker off.
Can't be a Oni cuz of blinks. And can't be a blink cuz it hunted while we we're in the room.
Also really active
Which leaves Goryo Twins Spirit Myling.

[strange coyote]

Like when you find some specific ghost behaviors in the game, the files update themselves mentioning them.

that would be really cool.

[fickle meteor]

so then its normal blinking :p

[dry vessel]

whats yall's fav map, mine is camp woodwind

[fickle meteor]

check for dots while being in the van

[fickle meteor]

same

also its probably twins if its fast speed but since u said fast blinking idk

only one ghost does that

[dry vessel]

does it change speeds every hunt? like slower then normal one hunt and then faster then normal? because if its fast speed it cant be twins

if only fast speed

[lime token]

How can people genuinely play the game and enjoy playing woodwind

[dry vessel]

but it also depends on how many uhnts

[dry vessel]

i really like looping with it, also no basement

[strange coyote]

I think a lobby could use an update, with given more informational pieces of information about ghots so you can review ghosts in the lobby to be able to tell what went wrong last time you hunted.

[rancid ivy]

Ngl it sounds like an Oni due to high activity, EMF 5, and fast blinks. But it may also be Twins since it can be slightly faster than normal.

[prime elk]

Feedback channels for both major and minor updates will be released occasionally, most often a couple weeks after its release. Please refrain from using other channels as an area to request or submit game ideas until then!

[rancid ivy]

Give us our Chronicle channel!

[dry vessel]

yesss

[fickle meteor]

but u can just figure it out with game knowledge 😭

[fickle meteor]

its good wymmmm

[vital sonnet]

We tried 3 hunts. One I couldn't even see the ghost. The other 2 they we're same speed with and without breaker which is how we crossed off Jinn

[rancid ivy]

I call it Camp Backwind for a reason.

[dry vessel]

so no twins i think

[lime token]

Crapwind

[fickle meteor]

check for dots in van

[strange coyote]

Yes but you would get files with cool pictures and text like when you take a picture of a "shadow ghost" a file pops up with a picture of a nondescript shadow ghost explaining this ghost event, and if some ghosts can't do it.

You know like literal information bomb given.

[dry vessel]

it also could not be spirit because you said its fast

do you have parabloc mics?

[fickle meteor]

mehhh id rather them update important things 😭

[dry vessel]

and how loud was it when hunting

[fickle meteor]

u can just learn all of that by playing

[strange coyote]

Yeah but you'd literally get updates too in case any ghost gets revamp, you can watch their files again and you're like oh yeah that changed.

[vital sonnet]

yeah

Its goryo or twins

[dry vessel]

ohh

[fickle meteor]

check da damn dots

[dry vessel]

well that leaves my last questions

[strange coyote]

I know a lot about ghosts in phasmophobia and for some reason I still always end up on the wiki for information

[dry vessel]

did it do two things in different places?

[strange coyote]

so yeah a room with all the information would be very neat.

[dry vessel]

cause thats twins behavior

[fickle meteor]

i know the ghosts by footsteps during a hunt 😭

[strange coyote]

Also a wiki check up is kind of "spoiling" the game which mean some people just want to discover stuff by themselves right

[vital sonnet]

No.
It was a Jinn 🙁
But it wasn't slower when power was off...?

[dry vessel]

WHAT>>>

[strange coyote]

so to have entries that fill themselves based on what you personally investigated would be great.

[dry vessel]

HOW??? (this game has so many weird things)

[lime token]

Jinns don't work like that

[fickle meteor]

not a bug

[strange coyote]

I feel like that sometimes like is it like this or like that, that's exactly why we should get a file cabinet to understand them better.

[vital sonnet]

Just like my cursed Deo- I mean Raiju.
Slow as a deo, no special. Just a special Raiju lmao

[compact musk]

Anyone have a fix for blurry text despite chromatic abbreation or wtv the setting is called being off? I wouldn't normally mind but im dyslexic as is and and some of these texts are just impossible to read or causing eye strain.

[bright badge]

They could ✨

[fickle meteor]

check ur graphics card settings

and change ur resolution, restart, change back

[compact musk]

My resolution, refresh rate, and everything else is fine and normal. I havent changed anything and then today its different.

[fickle meteor]

these helped me personally

[strange coyote]

Also I love pieces of lores, so the files could also include lore.

[fickle meteor]

i turned off optimization for phas

[compact musk]

It happened today despite changing none of my settings so thats why im confused and seeing if anyone knows

[fickle meteor]

wait that mightve been another game

did u change resolution and restart and change it back to the correction one ?

[compact musk]

Yea nothings working

ive tried most of the trouble shooting options I can see. ATP im abt to just uninstall and reinstall and hope it turns it to the default settings

[fickle meteor]

whats ur monitor hertz also dont uninstall

[compact musk]

100

[fickle meteor]

whats ur frames set at

[astral badge]

Since when does Jinn sprint just as fast when it's far from you as when it's close, with the fuse box turned on?... Some ghosts seem to have "lost" their special abilities for me. Why?

[compact musk]

The default? you cant change the cap in game

[strange coyote]

Or like some hidden information about ghost gets added up with time for example, hunted 5 banshee, new information added to the file.

[fickle meteor]

check ur phas settings on ur graphic card application

i moved mine to my ssd which also just helps

[fast igloo]

I'm just looking forward to the smudges getting fixed lol I do 0 evidence and smudges are a must and I'm tired of dying in the middle of a smudge burning lol

[fickle meteor]

do u use tier 2

[fast igloo]

@fickle meteor I've tested it with all 3 tiers and it's the same but I prefer tier 1

I'm also not the only one, most ppl I know are having an issue dying while burning smudges. It's kinda got out of hand

[fickle meteor]

i never has issues idk what yall r doing 😭

id have to see gameplay

[fickle meteor]

is "chrom abb" or whatever that dumb setting is off ?

[fast igloo]

Are you pc or console? I've been curious if it's everyone or just us on console or ps5

[fickle meteor]

pc

[compact musk]

Yes

[fickle meteor]

so maybe thats why

[jade bloom]

I thought I was going crazy and I smudged too late but I have been dying more often recently

[compact musk]

Sorry i left my computer and am on my phone now

[mossy mason]

if a jinn is chasing you with breaker on and is greater than 3m from you, it moves at 2.5 m/s

[fickle meteor]

id try #tech

oops #1082421799578521620 @compact musk

[fast igloo]

Yeah we all on ps5 which means it could be a latency issue on console or just ps5

[fickle meteor]

that may be it

i never die with tier 2 or 3 smudge

tier 2 is best

[jade bloom]

Tier 3 is easy photo

[compact musk]

Yeah thats what imma do once im back at my computer. This happened once previously and I reloaded the game and it fixed so I figured it was a loading error but now it wont go way.

[fickle meteor]

ive heard people having issues recently!

[fickle meteor]

facts

[fast igloo]

@fickle meteor yeah me neither with any smudge pre voice recorder update. Ever since the update there's been huge issues like dying in the middle of burning smudges lol

[fickle meteor]

😭 thats insane

[jade bloom]

From where do you smudge? When the ghost gets near?

It's no longer a global effect

[compact musk]

Ive noticed a similar ish issue and Im On PC. But it was more so that despite using a smudge. Ghosts were still following me.

[fickle meteor]

i throw my smudge at ghost :3

when im really close

[jade bloom]

So real

[fickle meteor]

but thats habbit from t3 i think

or old phas back in the day idk

[jade bloom]

I just like causing them more pain

[fickle meteor]

lol

[compact musk]

I just always drop items once im done using them outta instinct in other games

[fast igloo]

@jade bloom depends on the ghost but also irrelevant. Pre update you could hit it at the last second and be fine with it 6 ft away, now can start smudging with it in another room and it come in and kill ya mid smudge lol

[jade bloom]

It's no longer global, and also it shouldn't depend on the ghost? Only moroi has any sort of interaction with smudge and that's just lasting longer

[compact musk]

Global or not doesnt change that the ghost is killing mid smudge when jt shouldnt

[fickle meteor]

just do it when ghost is close ezpz

[gloomy cliff]

I thought I was high today cause I died after igniting it LOL

[compact musk]

He said earlier it was doing it even if he did it last second

[fickle meteor]

get pc ezpzp

[fast igloo]

@jade bloom it definitely depends lol. I'm not gonna pop a smudge as soon as an old thaye, slow twin, hauntu with power on etc start hunting, but will if I'm in the vicinity of a rev lol

[compact musk]

It might not be device but controller delay in all honesty

[jade bloom]

Love my hantus

[fast igloo]

@gloomy cliff yeah it's annoying af when you die and see the burnt smudge laying next to your body lol

[compact musk]

Have u tried a different controller at all

[jade bloom]

when you get a hantu on woodwind you just run to the campfire and bully the poor bastard

[compact musk]

The only ghost that ever trips me up is a deo

[fickle meteor]

this is why i always light the campfire

[jade bloom]

I haven't gotten a deo in so long

[fast igloo]

Yeah love the campfire hantu lol

[jade bloom]

It's always yureis and mares :/

[compact musk]

Even if I know its a deo I still instinctively hide after smudging and then get caught

[fickle meteor]

noob

:P

[compact musk]

Im glad im not the only one whos been getting like 6 mares and 6 yureis and 1 random one off

[fast igloo]

@compact musk nah definitely nothing to do with console controllers lol. It's way to big of a noticeable difference for us on console pre update vs updated. I do nothing but run 0 evidence and really good at knowing all the ghosts inside and out, their weakness and how to best them lol

[jade bloom]

I always get excited when dots and spriti

[fickle meteor]

console players always get shit on with updates 😭

[compact musk]

Yeahh that sucks. I got a buddy on console who I wish I could ask if he experiences it but i dont think hes ever even used a smudge 😂

[hallow vortex]

i cant use tier 3 smudge 💔

[jade bloom]

Only for it to be a yokai

[lime token]

There is an input delay when taking photos and smudging if that's what yall mean

[compact musk]

Nah hes getting killed mid smudge

[jade bloom]

they need to overhaul those ghosts 100%

[compact musk]

And stuff like that

Ghosts not being effected at all either

[lime token]

That's just desync issues

[fast igloo]

@fickle meteor it happens lol, I just hope it gets addressed and looked into cause I miss playing phas as much as I used to but when I go from dying once every 20 matches to half the time cause my smudge was ignored I get annoyed and don't play it lol

[fickle meteor]

maybe thats why i have zero issues im on PC

[lime token]

In multi you need to smudge earlier

[compact musk]

Im guessing hes on single player

From the sounds of it atleast

[fast igloo]

@compact musk no I haven't played on single since getting my apocalypse trophy

@lime token I mean I used to not to and shouldn't have to now technically it should be exactly the same as it always has been. Like pre update when I would die it was because hitting the smudge at the lost possible sec and I be like yeah that's on me, I pushed my luck to much... but now it's literally being mid smudge. I've thoroughly tested it lol

[compact musk]

Thats my biggest thing that id be speaking it on. Was fine prior to the one update, and now the issues arrised

[lime token]

Just a severe case of connection issues I suppose

[compact musk]

Doubt its a coincidence and probably just console getting screwed over

[coarse comet]

Im on console and dont have that issue at all

[lime token]

That can happen especially if your non host

[fast igloo]

Exactly, I figured it was an issue that others would have reported on to and it would get resolved cause stuff happens with updates no biggie, but hopped on last night for a sec and very 1st match died mid smudge, like fk it's still not fixed lol

[compact musk]

Have you tried the steam pages? Or just the discord?

[fast igloo]

@coarse comet Xbox or ps5?

[lime token]

It's not a console issue lol

[coarse comet]

Ps5

[lime token]

It's ping related

[compact musk]

Ive had issues that the server hasnt had reports on but the steam forums/support pages have had an answer for, so if you havent checked it, worth it to.

[fast igloo]

@coarse comet hmm me too, and almost all my friends on ps5 playing are reporting the same issue as me. We all run 0 evidence and prestige 10+ so we know what we're doing but all having same issue

[compact musk]

I mean its likely but if ping wasnt an issue prior and he isnt noticing any other potential ping related problems then it makes sense to be annoyed and or skeptical its smth else.

[coarse comet]

Also the smudges have ranges, tier 1- 3 metres
Tier 2- 4 metres
Tier 3- 5 metres

So i just suggest smudging the ghost while its like a distance away from you, and not when its rlly close to killing you

[fast igloo]

@compact musk I'll check there, not sure what I could or others do to help remedy it on console though

[compact musk]

Yeah, not sure honestly, but might just be one more person complaining abt a bug or performance issue is enough for it to be fixed and or caught enough traction to then be worked on..

Hopefully thinking but its all you can do sometimes.

Hopeful*

[fast igloo]

Yeah it's not ping, or desync, there's no other issues other than it's like the game isn't registering that a smudge has been activated.

[lime token]

I would need to see a clip

[fast igloo]

@lime token yeah I honestly should clip it and send it in the next bug report. I honestly just never think about clipping.

[compact musk]

I have an issue too occasionally on PC where ill get killed mid smudge but its very very rare (ive had it maybe 2 times total) and happens on single player. Havent had it happen on multi tho

It was with tier 2s. T3s i had no issue

[fast igloo]

@compact musk I'd take those odds lol

[lime token]

Also "mid smudge" is 2.5 seconds after it's been smudged, I highly doubt you are getting killed then

[fast igloo]

@lime token well I am, trust lol

[compact musk]

It might be hard to beleive but I can count 2 seconds

[lime token]

Source: trust me bro

[deft ore]

btw, if I discover a bug, then what's the best way to report it?

[compact musk]

Bug reports channel

#bug-reports

[fast igloo]

@lime token source: 11th person on ps5 to platinum the game lol

[compact musk]

Thats a sick achievement holy

[lime token]

If this was a common thing that was happening, there would be a plethora of people complaining about it

[compact musk]

Congrats man

[lime token]

Proves nothing but ok

[compact musk]

Yet only 2 people in the thousands have said anything, meaning its statistically not common...

[deft ore]

thx, I failed to see that. Might be because I'm (fr) legally blind 🙂

[fast igloo]

@lime token you would think, like I've reported it and my friends have but a lot of ppl won't like there's lots of times in other games, after updates stuff gets messed up and I don't report and it gets fixed shortly after with a patch

[lime token]

From what I'm hearing, the ghost is only getting smudged for 2 seconds which sounds utterly unbelievable from my pov

[bright badge]

Time to grind 100 more levels on camp wood wind to see if the smudges give you issues

[lime token]

Lmao

[fast igloo]

@lime token it's not ment to prove anything other than I know the game lol. Like I watched 100s of hours of live streams before it came out on console, so when it came out I was already really good then dud nothing but 0 evidence once I could until I was good enough to get it right with perfect investigation 98% of the time lol

[compact musk]

If no other factors have changed (server host, internet providers, console and its settings etc) and the only thing that did change was a game update, then it's very clearly the denominator here. Whether it be unoptimized or something else, the main issue is clearly learning towards smth caused by the game/console effect by the game, during that update.

[bright badge]

Yeah! I learned everything about the game from Insym and I am a really good player

[fast igloo]

@bright badge I actually prefer doing 0 evidence on the 1st map more than woodwind though woodwind is where I learned how.

[compact musk]

Controversial but I hate woodwind

[wooden robin]

Can do zero evidence but doesn't know what the first map is called smh (I can't name a single map)

[compact musk]

I think tanglewood is more fun regardless of run. Whether it be zero evidence or not

[lusty wing]

anyone looking to play (EU)

[wise oyster]

not really controversial. Apart from speedrunning it's a crappy map

[wise oyster]

Please keep 'looking for group' requests in our designated channels. Check them out, Investigator: #lfg-eu | #lfg-na | #lfg-as | #lfg-sa!

[fast igloo]

@compact musk I don't hate it but definitely not a big fan of woodwind anymore

[lime token]

I hate cww with a passion, but it always finds a way to make me spend a shit ton of time on it

[fast igloo]

@wooden robin oh my bad for not naming it specifically, must have meant I didn't know the name lol

[compact musk]

That makes sense I guess. I only see people liking it so figured it was a liked map, but now that you say its good for speedrunning , i realize everyone ive heard say like the map, speedrun on it

[wise oyster]

Alright, time to again flip a coin between Grafton and SM

[compact musk]

This might be a real contoversial opinion but.

[lime token]

Go to SM for an easy bone spot

[compact musk]

I would rather do SM unrestricted over ridgeview

I hate ridgeview with a passion

[wise oyster]

Yup, that's why it's in the running. Tbh I mostly love the map, hate the bone search

But also someone saying SM is enough to make me pick it

[bright badge]

Sm is one of if not the best designed maps in the game but it’s a large map and large maps are just too big to be fun game after game in single player

[fast igloo]

I like doing 0 evidence on the 1st map (Tanglewood) because it's a much more controlled environment and easy to save smudges when you loop in the kitchen and dip off into the garage after breaking their ankles

[lime token]

Not excited for the next hotfix

[wise oyster]

"game after game" perhaps, but still totally worth playing

lmao tfw you know you have a chapel ghost b/c you get the firelight objective done while you're still hauling stuff

[compact musk]

Yepp

[wise oyster]

yep, there it is throwing shit in the chapel

[compact musk]

Unironically this is how I won my apoc 3 run

[wise oyster]

nice

the one time I don't need my paramic on SM and I get a paramic objective

[fast igloo]

I got my apocalypse 3 with a deo.... easy street lol

[lime token]

I remember my first completion to a moroi but I forget the ghost room

[compact musk]

It was a photo of emf, firelight, and i cant remeber the last one. Think it was 3 unique photos? And as I was hauling I get a firelight objective done

[lime token]

My vr completion was also to a moroi

[blissful coyote]

gulp

[bright badge]

Probably fake then… if you don’t remember the ghost, the room, the side objectives and how you got the photo, I can tell you cheated

[lime token]

Lol

[compact musk]

I got a demon on my 2nd rver apoc simply bc it started hunting before the timer. So the rest of the game was just me doing the very simple photo tasks. Got really lucky.

Made a joke that apoc 3 was too easy after that, and then immediately got proven otherwise

[south violet]

can any1 help me im stuck on the part initiazlizing

[tough storm]

Still a feature?

[fast igloo]

Lol

[compact musk]

Close the game is pretty much all u can do.

[compact musk]

Pretty sure there's a glitch rn where it spawns in the same spoy

Behind the bookcase in the hallway next to chappel

[tough storm]

Hallway yes

Its a feature. Not a glitch

[compact musk]

Really? I saw a tiktok say otherwise so figured it was the case. Dont play SMs enough to check

[lime token]

That is the "zero point" of SM so they must have done something to prevent it from spawning anywhere else

[tough storm]

[compact musk]

Oh wait nvm i get that then.

[fast igloo]

I didn't even bother with apoc 1 or 2 since you get them automatically for getting the 3rd

[compact musk]

Like how the ZP of woodwind is right near the pole

[tough storm]

Accidentally offset the spawning% of the bone and now it only spawns there

[lime token]

In the statistics page at the end of the game it still displays the room it was meant to be in, it just failed to spawn

[compact musk]

Well "right near" being a loose location of what I mean

[tough storm]

You like poles eh...

[compact musk]

Exactly what I did aswell

I wasnt gonna work my way up when u get the 2 under by default if you get gold

[fast igloo]

Exactly

@tough storm what are you 12?

[tough storm]

Mlem

[compact musk]

Hes not wrong so I cant really deny him anyway 😂

[tough storm]

Seeeeeeeeeee

[fast igloo]

Still though lol

[tough storm]

I have been correct again. The cat shall remain happy

[tough storm]

Or fred. Praise fred

[compact musk]

Is fred the ghost or cat

[fast igloo]

Fred the voodoo doll

[compact musk]

Oh hes got a name??

[fast igloo]

No, I was just saying lol

[compact musk]

Honestly fred fits imo

Gonna edit the wiki page to name it fred based off this conversation alone

[fast igloo]

Indeed lol... I gotta get back to me daughters schooling lessons, you all be good or be good at it 🤙

[tough storm]

Your right tho

[compact musk]

Have a good one.

[tough storm]

Be good at being evill? Shit the overlord series taught me that

Also whats the limit on musicbox playtime?

Cant seem to get it to play longer then like 8 seconds

[lime token]

At least 1 second and a maximum of 10 years

[tough storm]

There is no limit?

[lime token]

There is

[tough storm]

Mlem

[lime token]

I dunno the length though lmao

[tough storm]

Time to hop onto a custom to findout

[wise oyster]

it's like 30s

"drains the player's sanity at a rate of 2.6%/s, totalling 77% if the entire song is listened to" from the wiki

[tough storm]

Half a minute. Never got that far yet lol

[wise oyster]

place it and walk away to avoid sanity drain

[tough storm]

See when I place it.. the ghost decides to make an attempt on my life

[wise oyster]

Don't throw it, place it

[tough storm]

Like..F

Not G

[wise oyster]

I have drop mapped to R, but yeah

[tough storm]

Praise fred

[novel horizon]

I love power leveling my character. LOL I just went into a like 2 minute map and got this

aww can't post ss anyway it was a 4500xp run for a 2:05 investigation

[wise oyster]

My fastest was a 38 second Raiju on 11.47x with all 3 objectives, pre-Chronicle

[tough storm]

Salt?

[wise oyster]

not perfect

[tough storm]

Sadge

[wise oyster]

the math has changed with Media, but perfects were not worth the time when grinding

perfects themselves still not worth the effort, but getting some media is. Geo is my go-to for that nowadays

[lime token]

Media is genuinely so good for rewards

[tough storm]

Bone pic on SM

Easiest perfect is currently SM i think

[lime token]

Definitely the least RNG heavy rn

[tough storm]

Will go back to your secret room behind a fake wall

[mossy mason]

no

[tough storm]

Why

[lime token]

I had a bone on woodwind yesterday that was lodged into the ground so we couldn't take a photo lol

[tough storm]

Krill issue

[mossy mason]

why should I

[tough storm]

Its where you belong!

[mossy mason]

Nuh uh

[tough storm]

Wdym nuh uh! Yuh huh!!!

[bright badge]

Get locked in your Egyptian tomb for 6000 years

[mossy mason]

now that you put it that way...

is the random bird named "birb"

[lime token]

[tough storm]

Maybaps

[mossy mason]

lol
everything except the Media and Ghosts section of #1254568921110024254 hasn't been updated with Chronicle

[tough storm]

Go back to your charging station

[mossy mason]

no

[past leaf]

I've had like 3 games today where I've checked many times for orbs and never found them- then it turned out it was an orb ghost. lol

[tough storm]

Difficulty?

[past leaf]

Intermediate.

Just getting unlucky i guess

[tough storm]

Orbs sometimes clip through walls

[still wolf]

yo just met some Prestige II in random no evidence lobby that claims Goryo camera dots can be seen on no evidence if its a Mimic mimicking Goryo 🤣 pls help me

[tough storm]

No evidence means orbs = auto mimic

[plush condor]

Or going behind/inside car/shelves

[tough storm]

Sometimes I hate orbs

Othertimes. It is a mimic

[plush condor]

True, but on 0 evidence they're the best

[tough storm]

Auto mimic hahahahaha

[plush condor]

Yep

[still wolf]

You dont get it. She says Mimic will show Goryo dots if its mimicking it on no evidence 🤣 she's not letting me explain it to her that it will not show dots on no evidence

[still wolf]

Not orbs, Goryo dots btw

[tough storm]

Tbh there is not other way to properly guess goryo besides dots

[plush condor]

Even spirit box is a forced evidence

[tough storm]

For goryo?

[plush condor]

No, deogen and moroi

[tough storm]

Moroi fair enough. It curses via spiritbox

Deogen has forced evi besides hunt?

[plush condor]

Spirit box

[tough storm]

Didnt know that

[still wolf]

Can Mimic mimic Goryo dots on no evidence? 🤣🤣 cause this girl says it can

[mossy mason]

deo has a unique breathing sound on the spirit box

[tough storm]

Its a mimic

[stoic zealot]

It's because deo has a unique breathing

[worthy mountain]

it was fixed

[plush condor]

It would be logical if it does

[leaden ivy]

It used to, but it was a bug. It is fixed and now a mimic that is mimicing a goryo no longer appears on dots

[tough storm]

Mimic is the goat.

Always will be

[still wolf]

on No evidence it can give Goryo dots?

[tough storm]

Mimic is the only gangster who can do everything 🙂

[leaden ivy]

No

[tough storm]

Not anymore no

[plush condor]

These are all the ghosts with forced evidence i think, Deogen and Moroi will always have Spirit Box, Hantu will always have Freezing Temps, Goryo will always have DOTS, and Obake will always have Ultraviolet

[leaden ivy]

The ONLY evidence giveaway on 0 evidence is mimic's ghost orbs

[still wolf]

well thats what this girl in my lobby is saying 🤣🤣

[leaden ivy]

well tell her to read patch notes cause her info is out of date

[still wolf]

and im trying to explaint it cant but she wont listen to me

[tough storm]

Because orelse your gonna have a horrible time waiting

[plush condor]

Yep...

[still wolf]

man she got real mad I told her she's wrong 🤣🤣

[tough storm]

Back to praying to fred that the shade wont suddenly sumo flip me

[plush condor]

Oh, btw, for the people who don't know, shade will never write in the book if you're in the room (not on 0 evidence)

[tough storm]

The shade wont do much if anything if your in the room

[plush condor]

True, but sometimes it does

[tough storm]

Its more common to have a demon mimic

[plush condor]

I think mimic shade is the worst

Serious question

Can a mimic mimic a mimic mimicking a mimic?

[tough storm]

Technically I think a mimic can mimic any ghost.

But it cant mimic itself. Justlike you cant pull a fools fool card

[plush condor]

I know, I just had a stroke

😅

[tough storm]

Again?

[plush condor]

Yep...

[tough storm]

You need to start taking your meds man

[plush condor]

I am taking my meds, but for some reason they're blue now, not purple anymore

[tough storm]

🤔 you sure your not taking the stroke inducer?

[plush condor]

Umm, do you know that Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where’s the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

[tough storm]

You borked my brain there

[steep pelican]

[plush condor]

My brein is no breining

[tough storm]

Take the SM pill matey. Be calm

[plush condor]

AAAA 😱

[plush condor]

Imma go get some irn bru

[tough storm]

Bring some for me toooo

[plush condor]

No

[tough storm]

Been awhile since I had a good pill from Sunny meadows

[plush condor]

It's mine

[zinc coyote]

[tough storm]

Ours

[plush condor]

Mine

[tough storm]

You no longer have fred privileges

[plush condor]

No, I have ownership privileges

[tough storm]

OF FRED?!?

[plush condor]

Yep

[tough storm]

5$ and a highfive for fred's ownership?

[plush condor]

Nope

A recieved gift cannot be given away

[tough storm]

Gonna have to get you to die to a deogen

Die of shame.

[plush condor]

Don't even start with deogen

[tough storm]

Wait is a deogen mimic slow or fast?

[zinc coyote]

Slow

[plush condor]

My last sunny meadows run was last room on the right in the basement and got a deogen

[merry lantern]

hellooo, just wondering. has anyone else had the issue of trying to place the dots on the ceiling and it kind of disappears?

[zinc coyote]

Just like a normal deo

[tough storm]

Right bcus it mimics the deogen

[plush condor]

Died to it cuz couldn't find stairs

[zinc coyote]

Yep

[tough storm]

Grin

[zinc coyote]

#bug-reports but make sure its not in #known-issues

[tough storm]

Who can find those blasted stairs?!? All those doors look alike and the hallway is empty

[plush condor]

True

Wanna play?

[tough storm]

🤔 gimmie 10 mins to hop on?

[neon thunder]

trick question

both

[plush condor]

Why question mark?

[tough storm]

Maybe you don't like waiting

[plush condor]

Idc

As long as you hop on

[tough storm]

Dm me code

Fastest crash this side of the sahara

[plush condor]

It was deo

[tough storm]

Ofcourse lol

[dry verge]

Are you on console ? Because it’s been doing that to me as well lol or items randomly disappear

[merry lantern]

no i’m on pc, but a friend yesterday said the dots disappeared as well for them and they’re in console. i’ll have to take a video of it

[dry verge]

Ah gotcha !

[lilac linden]

I accidently pressed place and throw and my ghost book vanished from the face of the world...

[zinc coyote]

Check if it teleported back to the truck

[echo musk]

no because mimic don't share dots ev.

[tough storm]

Join us

[tough storm]

If placed on the roof in some maps it clips into the roof

[echo musk]

waves to my snack companion

[worn glade]

what's up with all these disco-ghosts anyway?

always flickering the light for several minutes

[echo musk]

they miss Studio 51. nods lots

[rotund plank]

I reported this on tanglewood in the first bedroom luckily I was able to recover my dots

[past leaf]

That's 4 ghosts today now that have had ghost orbs as an evidence and not given it lol. (Intermediate)

[zinc coyote]

Speaking of im having homemade ramen tonight

[rotund plank]

Have any console players had an issue of increasing crashes on the new Grafton and not being able to use the cameras in the truck just a black screen. That’s normally where the games been crashing

[past leaf]

I was playing with someone yesterday who that was happening to. Xbox

[rotund plank]

Yeah that’s what my wife plays on and there’s about a 33% chance she will crash or the cameras won’t work for her

[lilac linden]

it did not..

[zinc coyote]

#bug-reports but check #known-issues too

[zinc coyote]

Rip, happens

[lilac linden]

I need to split my f and g keys

[fickle meteor]

damn seems like console sucks

[rotund plank]

I was going through the known issues and didn’t see it so I guess I need to report it just trying to see if its common

[prisma laurel]

[fickle meteor]

im a geek - not a nerd, im dumb as shit 🙄

[past leaf]

The person I was playing with said it's about a 50/50 shot for them. Been happening for a few days now.

[rotund plank]

Okay I’ll put a report in for it. Thank you all 😊

[zinc coyote]

ive seen a few people mention crashes on the new map. been fine for me personally

[rotund plank]

Console or pc

[zinc coyote]

im on pc

[rotund plank]

I play pc and I’ve been fine my wife plays on Xbox and crashes constantly

[zinc coyote]

Probably a console issue then

Just gotta make a bug report

[mossy mason]

nerd

[fickle meteor]

tysm

[bright badge]

Wait guys, how is it a mimic when I get orbs if it doesn’t have orbs as evidence

[stoic zealot]

Report the ghost for exploiting

I'm going to eat a bag of croutons

[molten lodge]

i noticed with fuse box on in grafton most of the rooms still aren't warmed up is there an easier way to find the ghost room in that map?

i usually use temps 💀

[obsidian parrot]

Anyone know how I report an issue with one of the maps?

[stoic zealot]

It does take a few minutes but it should still be doable if you don't have a super active and super roaming ghost. Emf readings and listening/ looking for orbs are the other best ways

[stoic zealot]

#bug-reports but first check #known-issues if it's there

[hallow vortex]

you could use tier 3 motion sensor if things get rough but dont rely on it

[obsidian parrot]

As far as I can see it’s not a known issue

[molten lodge]

thanks guys i'm doing the challenge mode rn so sadly lvl one gear

[stoic zealot]

Then you are welcome to make a bug report, thank you!!

[molten lodge]

i only guessed it last time bc it shape shifted lolol accidental 0 evidence run

[strange coyote]

Make the ghost model an old lady in white gown with a shotgun

[stoic zealot]

T1 thermometer does take 5-10 seconds to set, but yeah it's crap anyways lol

[vestal ferry]

Yeah. Those rooms are same temp as outside. So can use that to judge if its unusually colder or not.
Can also just look for any sort of activity with emf and such.
Your ears are tbe biggest help in finding ghosts tbh.

[tough storm]

Grafton is basically an outdoor map

[vestal ferry]

Not really. Just some of the rooms are opened up to being outside temps is all

[stoic zealot]

You're telling me they don't have an HVAC forcefield? 😔

[jolly heron]

a green apparition that 'slimes' you and thus leaves rare evidence on your clothes and face

[molten lodge]

took some advice and did in fact find the ghost room after it was throwing everything lol

[strange coyote]

I think the new "reaper" title badge is an easter egg for a new ghost called a reaper

[fierce notch]

It’s a twitch drop

[strange coyote]

I mean why else use this unrelated title for a card?

Nobody's close to being a reaper

[wide bay]

anyone know what the weekly challenge is this week?

[strange coyote]

Nah I think they're releasing the reaper really soon

Its almost halloween too

[vestal ferry]

Check in game?

[fierce notch]

Bleadsdale farmhouse

[strange coyote]

Makes a lot of sense

[wide bay]

not at my pc and can't find any info online

[strange coyote]

New farmhouse, new title related to a new ghost in October

[vestal ferry]

Then check pins here.

[strange coyote]

I believe the reaper is coming

[wide bay]

christ mate, I'm new here. no need to be rude

[vestal ferry]

No new ghosts on the trello. Those were removed.

[vestal ferry]

??? Im not being rude but ok.

Literally just told you the info.

[strange coyote]

But they DID add easter eggs of new updates before

I believe in the Reaper

[vestal ferry]

They have. At certain points. But they were more puzzle types than using a badge.

[wide bay]

I mean, thanks. There is a nice way to say things though x

[strange coyote]

They did have the newspaper of the diner before they announced the map

[vestal ferry]

Yeah easy way to get blocked. ...

[wide bay]

no skin off my nose, love x

[echo musk]

yum yum! about to go run my a2 then a3 run for the day

[strange coyote]

I mean I'm convinced the reaper is coming ya

[wide bay]

thanks for the help anyway x

[zinc coyote]

[zinc coyote]

Take some ramen for good luck

[vestal ferry]

Im not. I just think devs thought it was a cool name or something. Could be a hint towards lore maybe?

[magic copper]

can someone explain to me how to use incense

[strange coyote]

Lol use the tutorial

[zinc coyote]

You light it on fire when the ghost is close

[strange coyote]

[magic copper]

the training?

[zinc coyote]

Yes

[magic copper]

the training never went over incense

[echo musk]

points to grim emote yep. got time to watch?

[magic copper]

do i need matches

[strange coyote]

Well shoot did they not update the training?

[magic copper]

last thing they showed me was the spirit box

[strange coyote]

[magic copper]

does it only work during a hunt

[zinc coyote]

Not at the moment perchance later

[echo musk]

heard

[vestal ferry]

You need matches in inventory. They will be in their own slot.
Have smudge in hand.
Press the use button.
Lights it up.

[fringe inlet]

any good tips for getting the secret demon achievement?

[hallow vortex]

honestly its kinda just rng

[lime token]

Worst achievement imo

[vestal ferry]

75% sanity. 5% sanity pills take one
Forced monkey paw. Wish for activity
Player and ghost speed 150%
Activity High
Ghost events low
Sanity drain 0%
As soon as you unlock door, start 60sec timer. Leave after 60sec. Rinse repeat until demon ability kills.
